Today I was up and on my way to London… Early. I flew out of Logan at 9:00am. Got to England at 8:25pm. Got out of Customs at 10:30pm and then drove to hotel in Sheffield 3 hours away from Heathrow. Now it is 2:30am in Sheffield, England and I’m deciding whether I stay up and practice my demo until I have to give it tomorrow or go to bed and practice when I get up. Part of me says go to bed and start fresh in what will pass for morning in my mind. Another part of me says I should be checking on everything right now before sleep and yet another part of me wonders why I am blogging rather than practicing in the first place.
The flight was pretty uneventful, I watched The Transporter on my iPod and then read and finished Chris Brogan & Julien Smith’s Trust Agents and then began it again to really digest it and take it all in. My intent was to read it the whole way but I wasn’t feeling into the book thing on the flight and that is why I have many forms of entertainment to bring with me on flights like podcasts, books, movies and music. Oh and I should have been looking over my demo, which I did… once.
Well, time to fish or cut bait, to sleep perchance to dream (probably about my demo) or to practice and then to sleep and dream about the demo, that is my question tonight. Tomorrow, demos and maybe a chance to photograph something English.
Something I have always wondered…how hard is it to get used to driving on the left side of the road, with the steering wheel on the other side? I don’t know that I could ever do it!
Anyhoo, hope your demo goes well!
.-= Look at what Christine wrote blog ..Vacation I wanted, vacation gotta get away! =-.
Christine,
I’m not doing the driving but being a passenger takes some getting used to. My brain just isn’t wired for the left side of the road. However I got used to it fairly quickly and the one thing that threw me off the entire time was going into the parking lot at the hotel. That was the thing that threw me off. And that was after 3 hours of left sided driving.
Hope you’re having a blast in London! Will you be meeting up with Murray while you’re there?
Dina,
I just got the chance to tweet him. It would be very cool to meet up with him.
